Huong's lawyers said CCTV video showing Huong walking up behind Kim and putting her hands over his face should have no bearing on the attorney general's decision, because both women were mounting the same defence and it had already been chose to free Siti Aisyah.

Defence lawyers have maintained the women were pawns in an assassination. The worldwide police organization Interpol has issued red notices asking governments around the world to send them back to face trial.

Who was Kim Jong-nam?

Four men from North Korea who were suspected of being behind the attack fled Malaysia the day Kim was killed, leaving Huong and Siti Aisyah the only two people in custody in relation to the crime. There was security camera footage of Huong. The North Koreans then promptly left the country.

Prosecutors had sprung a surprise on Monday by asking the court to drop the charge against Siti Aisyah and free her.

Indonesian authorities said earlier this week that Malaysia had agreed to release their citizen due in part to intense lobbying by Jakarta.

"She is not fit, physically and mentally, and I request for today's hearing to be postponed".

But her life took a turn when she moved to Malaysia, where like so many migrant workers she sought a brighter future than the one on offer in her poor rice farming village.

"My message to the other woman workers, please don't easily trust the others. If you want to do something, you have to understand what is that exactly", she said.

Throughout the proceeding yesterday, Huong appeared distraught and was sobbing.

Vietnamese Foreign Minister Pham Binh Minh called his Malaysian counterpart on Tuesday urging Huong to be released as well, according to Vietnamese media.

He was once seen as a future leader of the isolated country, but when his father Kim Jong-il died, he was bypassed in favour of the younger Kim.
